So the head of my crank bolt came off today when driving home. Its just the head of the bolt, i'd say that 90% of the actual bolt is still in the crank shaft.
I've been looking for solutions online and the most recommended thing to do is to weld a bolt head onto the stuck shaft - but thats not going to happen because i don't have a welding machine and my car is stuck in my garage.
Will those easy out tools work ?
Thats the only thing that i can think of anyways, if the easy out tool breaks then its bye bye 99 honda civic and its off to apply for a car loan for me....
PS: I was reading somewhere that with the head broken off there shouldn't be too much torque on whats left inside the crank wheel - if this is the case then the bolt should come out easily enough ???
